Rating Sources
Many reviewers praise the author's clear, quick, and engaging writing style, noting his effective use of metaphors and satirical elements to animate an otherwise abstract subject. The book is lauded for offering interesting insights and critical perspectives on contemporary financial practices and the underlying causes of economic crises. Readers appreciated its continued relevance years after publication and found the short chapters contributed to an easy reading experience.
A recurring criticism is that the book is a collection of previously published columns, leading to a sense of repetition in both content and style. This format also results in a lack of clear chronological context, as the texts often lack specific dates, making it difficult to place them in a timely framework and causing some passages to feel disjointed or dated. Several reviewers felt the book lacked a cohesive narrative or a clear "red thread," and some believed it did not adequately address the central question posed by its title. Additionally, while some found the content accessible, others, including those with an economics background, struggled with certain concepts or found the language at times to be overly dramatic or fragmented.
In conclusion, this book is generally seen as a thought-provoking and often alarming overview of financial topics, presenting a critical and sometimes pessimistic view of the economic system. It is best suited for readers who appreciate the author's distinctive, satirical writing style and are seeking an engaging, albeit somewhat fragmented, exploration of current financial issues rather than a deeply cohesive or academic analysis. While it may not provide definitive answers, it prompts significant reflection and is recommended for those interested in contemporary financial critiques, particularly if read in shorter sittings rather than continuously.
